Prompts Part 2

3. Rodney McKay, working with the SGC on nanite technology in an attempt to find a permanent solution to the Replicator issue, is called in to investigate a derelict, single-man spacecraft found by the Daedalus. The ship has taken heavy damage; the cockpit was exposed to space by an explosion. All that remains of the pilot are video logs and part of a hand inside a glove. Having half-fallen in love with the pilot from watching the logs, Rodney disobeys orders and reconstructs the pilot through the nanite technology. When John Sheppard tells Rodney that he's descended from the Ancients, and come bringing a warning of impending danger from Pegasus, not everyone is pleased John was raised from the dead. Rodney must make a choice between the Earth he knows or going back to Pegasus with John--whom the SGC doesn't trust and wants contained--or dead.

4. Rodney is a photographer who has a reputation for being lousy with people but a genius with the lens. When a photo of John Sheppard caught unaware goes viral, Rodney seeks him out and pleads with him to become his model, but John wants no part of it, having sustained severe burns to his body after his helicopter went down in Afghanistan. Rodney makes love to John with his camera, proving to John, and to the world, how beautiful he is.

5. Years ago, Rodney was involved in a bank holdup as one of the hostages. John Sheppard was an off-duty cop who was also taken hostage, and he was instrumental in keeping things under control until the time was right to make his move, rescuing all the hostages without any fatalities. When Rodney reads that John Sheppard is being investigated for being a dirty cop, he doesn't believe it, and acts to clear Johns' name, whether he wants the help or not. John is being framed for a crime he didn't commit, and he'll need all of Rodney's considerable resources to find out who is behind it and bring them down. The intervening years have been hard on John however, and he's lost faith in the system and himself.

6. No one can get an interview with the reclusive John Sheppard, a former military pilot who retired to a remote homestead in Alaska and then proceeded to write a bestselling novel. Reporter (and self-avowed city slicker) Rodney McKay is determined to get Sheppard's story, as he is tired of covering the puff pieces for his paper. He talks someone into flying him out to John's island, only to get stranded there when a major snowstorms hits.

7. The rumor mill has it that Rodney is going to ask Jennifer to marry him. Atlantis has been stuck on Earth for almost a year--Jennifer is making noises about leaving the SGC and starting her own practice to be closer to her family. When Rodney comes to John asking for help broaching 'a delicate question to someone I love, when I'm not sure what the reaction will be', John reluctantly agrees to help walk him through the possible scenarios, never realizing Rodney is trying to sound John out about their own relationship

I have one more, but I'm thinking about holding onto that one and writing it myself. :-)

Damn woman, are you trying to kill me??? All these ideas are just brilliant, BRILLIANT, and I wish I could write any of these, but the darn muses are being stubborn and give me no sparks :(

I so hope someone will pick one of these up, and write the story they deserve. (I'm still aiming for something shortish, and none of these would ever manage to stay short *sigh*)

I may have said it before, but I love your brain, ♥!

*grins* Aw, thank you!

My brain churns these things at regular intervals, only I never have the time or energy to write them! I keep saying some day... I'm just grateful the ideas are there when I need them.

I've love to write a story for every mock book cover [profile] bluespirit_star has created!
